Google “developer advocate” Felipe Hoffa has determined the top “weekend programming languages,” those which see the biggest spike in commit activity on the weekends. “Clearly 2016 was a year dedicated to play with functional languages, up and coming paradigms, and scripting 3d worlds,” he writes, revealing that the top weekend programming languages are:

Nginx, Matlab, Processing, Vue, Fortran, Visual Basic,
